Not as such, but should be quite doable with a plugin

The docs for kaocha.repl/run says that output is sent to stdout, but I'm not able to capture it.

(require 'kaocha.repl)
(with-out-str
  (kaocha.repl/run)) ;; => ""

(the test report is still displayed in my repl)

not off the top of my head @magnars, I'm guessing *out* is being rebound more than once, maybe in the output capturing plugin. Does it work if you disable output capturing?

I'll give that a shot!

Running:

(with-out-str
    (kaocha.repl/run {:capture-output? false}))

I still get ""

but now my repl looks like this:

😛

To give some context: I'm trying to make a kaocha plugin for Emacs, showing output in a separate buffer 🙂

If you have any ideas at all, @plexus I'd be happy to try them out.

(defmacro with-test-out-str
    [& body]
    `(let [s# (new java.io.StringWriter)]
       (binding [clojure.test/*test-out* s#]
         ~@body
         (str s#))))

  (with-test-out-str 
    (kaocha.repl/run))

Aha! Brilliant ❤️😄 I'll check it out at once.

Excellent, that did the trick. Now I have some fun emacs lisp coding to do in preparation for the next live stream. 🙂

Thanks for the help!

Looking forward! This has been requested more than one :)

Just want to say that I migrated all our backend tests to kaocha and it’s very nice! Great work @plexus and others who contributed!

That's awesome @vikeri! Really nice to hear!
